Once you have completed the activation process, you can browse through the app and view details about the available content. (For activation instructions, see the next section, “Activate and watch HBO Nordic.”)

To start HBO Nordic later, go to apps, My Apps, and then HBO Nordic.

Activate and watch HBO Nordic

Go to apps, My Apps, and then HBO Nordic.

Once you activate the app, you will not be prompted to again.

From the HBO hub, you can:

Watch any of the featured programs displayed in the center.

Select Currently Watching to pick up a show or series where you left off or access your Watchlist to select content you added to the list earlier.

For further choices, navigate to series or movies to search for additional content.

Enter the code from the Activate screen in Xbox into the Activate window in the browser. Select the AUTHORIZE button.

You will be presented with a device description, which you can customize. To register, select the Accept button. You will be notified of success with an “Authorization token accepted” message.

Once you’ve signed in, you won’t be prompted to again on this console, unless you sign out from within the HBO Nordic website. Each additional console you use will need to be authorized to your HBO Nordic account. You can register up to five different devices. If you want to add a new device after reaching the limit, you’ll have to remove a device from your list before you can add the new one. You can remove one device per month and up to six devices per year. Device management can only be done at the HBO Nordic website.

Change your language or adjust subtitles

To turn subtitles on or off or to change your language among Finnish, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian, go to the settings hub.

Use Family Settings to control access to content

Note Applies to Norway only.

If you use Family Settings to control what kinds of movies and TV shows can be watched through Xbox Live on your console, the HBO Nordic app will follow those settings. For example, if you use parental controls to restrict access to some kinds of TV programs, those programs will be marked with a “restricted” icon in the HBO Nordic app. To play a restricted item, an adult must enter the Family Settings pass code.
